The Ember electronic mug–which can automagically maintain your favorite poison at exactly your favorite temperature for as long as there’s liquid inside–has a new superpower: Thanks to an app update, the mug now integrates with Apple Health to keep track of how much caffeine you drink.
Probably not. But it’s still offering a rough picture, which must be enticing to health-obsessed people.
Then there’s the rest of us who live on purified caffeine and chocolate éclairs, and only one thing matters: The Ember Temperature Control Travel Mug–which was invented by entrepreneur Clay Alexander and designed in collaboration with the San Francisco studio Ammunition–now comes in snow white. Why is this important? It is not at all. Works just like the black one, but it looks cooler–in a 2001: Space Odyssey kind of way.
You can only get this white model for $150 at Apple online or in the company’s physical stores. And any existing Ember uses can update the app to start tracking their addiction right now.
